GTM Performance Engineering 370Z SUPERCHARGER KIT PRESS RELEASE

The air at altitude is less dense , so is less powerfull.
Any FI system will have to work harder to meet the same levels of pressure in terms of boost in relation to a sea level vehicle.
The MAF Sam refered to measures the amount of the air passing through the intake/s in a V format, that is directly related to an ECU scaled table that takes that V and performs a look up / calc to see how much air actually is going in, it uses that figure to throw in the correct amount of fuel to meet the fueling targets.
Thats it in a nutshell, but to meet fuel targets accurately there is a lot more then MAF V / air flow alone.

What kinda trap speeds do you think you'll be hitting?

Gmendez · 03-10-2010, 11:26 AM

Sam, what clutch/PP upgrade are you recommending with this kit?

Zsteve · 03-10-2010, 11:37 AM

If you do a little more research about the TUV approval you will get an idea about what we have to do in regards of testing to obtain that certificate .

Carb approval is going well, so far so good .

Sam

Thanks for the reply Sam. Damn thats not directly about Stillen or anything

Sam,
Just curiouos, what is the current lead time before you start shipping kits?

I was wondering about that and the fact that there's no support for them between their end connectors.

Hopefully by the time I finish reading this thread (I'm on page 17 or so) to the end I'll see an answer to this.

This all looks great so far BTW!!!

I assume this was referring to the oil filter relocation. You have to remember that the oil filter housing is now stationary on the chassis, so you have to have flex in the lines to allow the engine to move independent of the filter. If you have them mounted too rigidly you would have issues.

Well so far it's pretty straight forward..

STILLEN Super Charger (heavy rims but aftermarket exhaust on AT)
HP 288->422 = +134HP
TQ 241->310 = +69TQ

GTM Super Charger (Stock 6MT)
HP 278->419= +141HP
TQ 236->330= +94TQ

now do that for every say 500 RPM and we are getting somewhere.

Yup, an overlay of both dynos on top of each other would work.

Not really, unless they were both dyno'd on at the same time, on the same dyno.

In fact, it wouldn't be fair to either company.
